Magnetic Field Effects on Thermal Nanofluid Flowing through Vertical Stenotic Artery: Analytical Study

Abstract

The present investigation represents the first complete illustration of nanofluids flow. The effectiveness of wall slip and heat transfer on magnetohydrodynamic nanofluids flow over porous media in vertical stenotic artery with catheter has been analyzed. By considering the long-wavelength with low-Reynolds number approximation, a mathematical solution was derived to velocity, stream function, pressure difference, and temperature. The nanoparticle’s concentration, amplitude ratio, catheter size, and flow rate have been used to extract the pressure difference. This study analyzes the interaction effect of slip and thermal conditions on nanoparticles fluid suspension with a catheter in a vertical stenotic artery with/without the presence of magnetic field and porosity. The results are helpful for understanding the role of the engineering applications of nanofluids in biomedicine and some other applications. The results of this paper reveal that the nanoparticles concentration has little effect on the velocity, and the concentration, slipping, and porosity of the nanoparticles decreases the thermal energy.
